Music you are listening to now

[CalmRage]

I love the Final Cut.  Though it is depressing and pretty much a Roger Waters' solo album. 

Eh, I've tried to like ITTOD, but it doesn't grab me.  In the evening and AOML are great songs, but the rest leave me bored.  Caroselambra has a few good moments, but Zep shouldn't have attempted prog.  It's not their style. 

Since we are talking about depressing music.... currently Listening to:

Dimitri Shostakovich - 5th Symphony.  The Bernstein/NY Philharmonic version

Have you heard Presence? Achilles Last Stand, For Your Life, Nobody's Fault But Mine and Tea For One are standouts. No song ever encapsulated my loneliness like the latter one.

Presence is a great album.  Tea For One is depressing, but it's understandable given the fact that Robert Plant wrote the lyrics while he was healing after the car accident.

a family member is in the same position as Robert at the moment. However, he is not alone, even though i am a little more occupied with myself at the moment and i'm getting surer everyday. I am slowly allowing myself to be feminine. I am more and more seeing myself as Sara.

I remember being 5 and utterly in love with Tawny Kitaen when I first seen this video. Little me was just  .

Whitesnake-Here I Go Again

I remember when she was on the cover of Ratt's "Out of the Cellar" album. Of course that was a casette tape and you really needed the magnifying glass to see her good enough. I miss vinyl sometimes. She was a rockstar in the eighties and never played an instrument or picked up a mic.

Montana - Frank Zappa


I'm pluckin' the ol'
Dennil Floss
That's growin' on the prairie
Pluckin' the floss!
I plucked all day an' all nite an' all
Afternoon . . .

I'm ridin' a small tiny hoss
(His name is MIGHTY LITTLE)
He's a good hoss
Even though
He's a bit dinky to strap a big saddle or
Blanket on anyway
He's a bit dinky to strap a big saddle or
Blanket on anyway
Any way

I'm pluckin' the ol'
Dennil Floss
Even if you think it is a little silly, folks
I don't care if you think it's silly, folks
I don't care if you think it's silly, folks

Listening to two home demos i made a few months ago with the vocals mixed out. Got to do something with that guitar riff one day.

Demo 1 (only guitar riff and variations)
Demo 2 (two guitars, one of them overdubbed and pitch-shifted, mixed-out vocal, programmed drums and the melody from She's Not There by the Zombies quoted at the end)

Rock'n'Roll Suicide - David Bowie

No don't worry, it's the low point of my angst playlist, I've got 5 more tracks to bring me up again afterwards.

[CalmRage]

Take the following songs:

Don't Leave Me Now - Pink Floyd
Hey You - Pink Floyd
Nobody's Home - Pink Floyd
Outside the Wall - Pink Floyd
Mother Love - Queen
Watermelon In Easter Hay (10.31.1978) - Frank Zappa
Super Trouper - Deep Purple
Sail Away - Deep Purple
Outside Now - Frank Zappa
He Used To Cut The Grass (Outside Now part 2) - Frank Zappa

Mix them together and you got yourself a depressed Sara.

[misschievous]

"Shame" Matchbox 20
"Kody"    Matchbox 20
"Fool To Think" DMB
"Space Between" DMB
These songs always makes me miss My First and only girlfriend.
"Rhyme and Reason" DMB
Lately makes me think struggles with suppressing- dealing- and eventually accepting being TG
I have all my feelings in one song or another of Dave Matthews Band

PS Favorite band lol

[CalmRage]

Going To California - Led Zeppelin
Tangerine - Led Zeppelin (always fascinated me, this song, just the right chord progression)
Gallows Pole - Led Zeppelin (cover of the old folk tune "The Maid Freed From The Gallows")

[K Style Addiction]

Rythem ~ Harmonia

[King Malachite]

Sailor Mars Song - Eien no Melody (Eternal Melody)

[CalmRage]

Stay With Me (All Night Long) - The Tranquility Rage (actually just me with programmed drums)

and then:

(Playing A Guitar Solo With This Band Is Like Trying To Grow A )Watermelon In Easter Hay - Frank Zappa

I don't really agree with Zappa's views, especially on songs such as "You Are What You Is". It's people's own business what they want to be or need to be, Frank.

[King Malachite]

Tekken 2 OST - Emotionless Passion ~ Kazuya's Theme (Arranged Version)

[CalmRage]

The Beatles - I'm So Tired (2009 Stereo Remaster)

Give you everything i've got for a little peace of mind, indeed.

I love Frank, but he was a bit backwards on certain social issues.  I mean he essential blames the women's liberation movement for homosexuality in "Bobby Brown",lol.  He was a talented man that had some great ideas, but he was also a bit full of himself at times. 

Currently Listening to:
Emerson Lake & Palmer- Karn Evil 9

He sure was 

You Are What You Is is a great record despite that. Got it on record.

The songs all tell some kind of story.

I agree with you there.  "The meek shall inherit nothing" and "heavenly bank account" are some of my favourite Zappa moments.   I believe this was Vai's first album in the band.  Though, that's just going off memory so I could be wrong.

currently Listening-
Yes- Gates of Delirium

For all your Zappa needs:

All lyrics and release dates and Steve Vai's first album was "Tinsel Town Rebellion". He started off transcribing solos from live tapes for Zappa in 1979. He couldn't take him on tour because he wasn't of age yet. Once he was he joined the group for the second tour in 1980.

I never knew that.  Thanks for sharing.  I'm a big zappa fan, but I don't compare to the hardcore fans.
